Kerala, India Sep 17, 2024

Kerala, seen in today"s image, is a geographic wonderland in India. Here, the coastal plains and pleasant climate create a paradise for nature lovers. Located in the tropics, the state predominantly experiences a humid tropical wet climate, typical of many of Earth"s rainforests. The climate in this area is largely shaped by the seasonal deluge brought by the monsoon rains. During summer, Kerala often faces gale-force winds, storm surges and heavy downpours from dangerous cyclones originating in the Indian Ocean.
